ESSEX, MO (KFVS) - Essex native SFC Robert Myers sent us this picture for our Spring flowers 2012 slideshow.

Myers says he searched and searched and this is the only flower he has been able to find in Afghanistan. He said, "Looks like a weed but hey, it's a flower."

He says he can repost some more when he gets back state-side at the end of the month and getting back to color instead of rocks will be a welcomed change for sure.
